BDS Mohammed Would Rather Ride Donkey than Use Israeli Gas

Shouldn’t be too hard to manage if he’s serious about it. It’s not like Jordan has a major donkey or wood shortage.
A proposal for Jordan to buy $15 billion (Dh55.08 billion) of natural gas from Israel is facing strong opposition in the kingdom because of the intensifying Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which officials fear could delay or even scupper the deal.
At a protest on Sunday in front of Nepco’s Amman headquarters, protesters held up placards opposing “the Zionist gas deal”.
Yahya Mohammad Al Saud, an MP and president of the Jordanian parliamentary committee on Palestine, said: “The Jordanian [people are] not willing to accept this agreement. I will return to riding on a donkey and heating my house with wood before I would consider taking gas from Israel.”
Jordanian ministers were supposed to be driving Priuses to “fight pollution” after Japan gave Jordan 110 of the cars. (Apparently people aren’t actually big on buying them.) I’m not sure if those Priuses trickled down to the president of the Jordanian parliamentary committee on Palestine, but if Mohammed wants to trade a hybrid for a donkey, no one will gainsay him.
Mohammed is on the heavy side so it might be hard on the donkey, but it seems only appropriate that this guy should be riding a jackass.
Now you might be wondering, did I deliberately pick a photo in which Mohammed looks like a crazy idiot. But here are the photos I had to work with. Good luck finding a better one.
Here’s Mohammed announcing his plan to found a Nazi dictatorship consisting of just him and the donkey.
Here is Mohammed just discovering how to point. It’s an exciting moment for him.
Here is Mohammed when he couldn’t decide whether to be a guerrilla or a mafia don and tried to be both.
Here is Mohammed doing his favorite thing in the world, pointing at something. Possibly Palestine.
Here is Mohammed having to be restrained from jumping off the podium and diving into the crowd.
Here is Mohammed with the giant pile of money he intends to burn instead of the Israeli gas.
If you want the live action version, here’s Mohammed getting into two really lame fake fights in parliament. I pity the jackass that has to put up with this jackass.
